Let me talk about his incurable imbecility.
So let me deploy these words to beat him back because guess what?
He is more than dog whistling.
He's sending signals to an audience that must be addressed, but she ain't got to do it.
She is so comfortable, confident in her Blackness.
She ain't got to fight the battles Obama did.
See, Barack Obama is Jackie Robinson.
The major qualification of Jackie, beyond his brilliance as a ballplayer, was his ability to bite the bullet and not say anything in the face of these people and go on.
Willie Mays plays with sharks.
I knew that's where you were going.
He's the Say Hey Kid.
And now we got Willie Mays in high heels.
And she's smiling.
And every time she smiles, that joy I got, the world didn't give it to me.
They don't understand joy.
They try to link it to Hubert Humphrey.
No, that's linked to the black shirt that says, you ain't going to steal my joy.
You're not going to break my soul, as translated by none other than Beyonce.
So I think she's playing it brilliantly.
And to continue to do that is going to give her an effective pulpit for even those white people who go, man, if that was me, I would have said something.
